I am still in gaming hell, but the two games I’ve been playing both feature goddesses, and it’s Easter so heck, why not a post for all the religious possibilities in Pokemon? I see a lot of Arceus this, Arceus that, but hardly any other of the plentiful options.
I want businessmen praying to Dialga to help with time constraints and scheduling snafus, I want nursery attendants who pray to Cresselia before nap time. I want Zekrom and Reshiram worshipers debating about how best to find an inner balance. I want storm chasers praying to Zapdos, or Rayquaza or the Forces of Nature for protection. I want surgeons praying to Xerneas while their in prep. I want offerings to Yveltal or Giratina at funerals in hopes that they’ll be kind to the loved one’s soul.
I want racecar drivers emblazoning their cars with imagery of the Beast Trio for luck and silly superstitions about speed. I want ship captains praying to Kyogre for calm seas or Lugia for swift travel. Heck even little things like a parent hoping Uxie watches over their child before a big test.
There’s so many Legendaries and Mythicals and there’s even some overlap. I want all the things. So many things.
